In the Scarescraper, one of the bosses is called Fright Knight, his description reads;
"Rumor has it that this Greenie comes from the middle ages, where he was a knight searching for the kidnapped princess. Sadly, wherever he went, she always seemed to be in another castle"
The last bit is obviously a nod to Super Mario Bros. on the NES, where Princess Peach was always in another castle.

When you first get a video call from E.Gadd on the first mission he says the he was worried that the battery life on the Duel Scream might die so he turned down the brightness so it would be good for awhile. This is actually a joke about the original DS' short battery life since the Duel Scream is in fact a modified DS.

In a 2013 interview with Polygon, director Bryce Holliday revealed that Luigi's portrayal in the game was influenced by the 1990 British comedy series Mr. Bean. The show served as reference material for Luigi's animations and characterization, with Holliday noting parallels between Luigi and the show's title character as a "hapless fool and reluctant hero." Holliday also felt that these similarities would help audiences sympathize with Luigi, which in turn would supplement the comic relief that his reactions and mishaps provide.
